I just bought this car from a friend of mine about two months ago. Now granted i knew it need some tlc because the car sat in his barn for a while. now that i just got over 1,000 into it now there is something weird going on.

I took my family out for dinner a few days ago and the car ran great all the way there with no problems. We went in ate dinner and came out and car wouldn't start. So i stopped another couple to give us a jump and it started right up, and we made it home. Now later that evening i took the car over to my buddies shop and told him what was up and then go and behold the car did it again. We are thinking there is something electrical going on but not sure where to start looking cause battery and all wires and cables are new. Any ideas would be helpfull

300M 3.5L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 49,000 miles

I like my Chrysler 300m a lot; she is 17 years old with only 49, 000 mileage; I'm a collector and treats here that way. Was bought on a Miami car show, the same day that Bill Clinton bought the same model.

Problem : this is the second time I bought a brand new car battery. Fully charged I have no problems with the car. But the alternator does not recharge the battery, so after a week of driving the battery is empty. If I charge the battery everything works again till it's empty.

I put a new battery, close the car, turn off everything in the car that consume energy, put her in the garage and after a week, without driving the car, the battery is empty again. No problem was found at the charging system. What is emptying my brand new fully charged battery after a week of stalling in the garage.

If you drive and the charging system doesn't work I do understand that the battery is getting empty, but what if you don't drive at all?

Feels like a ghost under the hood. New battery, good altinator,good bendix/ brushes and without even toutching the car in a week , my battery is empty again.

PLEASE HELP; I LIKE MY BABY CAR. I FEEL HELPLESS IN NOT CARING FOR HER.
